I just find it funny how everyone hates that i post facts that show miles' tenure in a positive light yet nothing is ever said to posters that do nothing but shite on him. Even when what they say is easily refutable.

The overly aggressive way you convey your arguments will constantly lead you to be seen unfavorably on public forums, regardless of their accuracy.

I know i come off as a loud obnoxious cajun but i really am a loud obnoxious cajun.

Im sure facts are taken better without a dumbass tacked on the end.
Unfortunately ill never know.

People think its easy being borderline genius and very good looking.

But hey its my cross to bear.

Can you rename the thread Toss Dive appreciation thread and post Stevan Ridleys game winning toss dive vs Tennessee gif.

I get that it can be a good play. I've nothing against it. But what is the reason LSU runs it so much more often than any other team, college or pro?

Chip kelly ran the same play 50% of the time and had all of 4 running plays in his entire playbook.

There's literally no other team in the nation that runs it with any regularity. It's an anachronism.

Yeah I was going to say that also. I've never seen any other pro or college team run that play, and since LSU isn't exactly known for their offensive ingenuity I don't think that's a good thing

And also I know there have been a ton of big plays from the toss dive, but I don't think it was because of the play design but more a result of it being run by really good running backs and solid offensive lines

I'm just saying, you are right here, but people will likely disagree just to spite you for caring so much.

Thats why i hate people in crowds.

Comparing Oregons offense with LSUs probably doesn't help your argument that much. Chip Kelly didn't run the toss dive.

And I think it's a cool play and it does sometimes work, but again I wonder why no other team runs it with such regularity?

I'm actually currently playing a D1 sport, so yeah. I am. I played Tight end in juco so I might have a grasp of the idea. Name one team in the NFL who runs a toss dive and/or has success?

Look, there were times when the play was successful, but there were enough times when LSU ran it where it looked like a total train wreck and they lost yards. People came to dislike it for a reason. It's not a bunch of people imagining things. Of course, LSU has had phenomenal backs that can make just about anything work, but I think people are just ready for some more less predictable play calling.
